force a next hop
Hi
I'm having a f5 which loadalance two links (outband connections) using ltm to a remote site.
I'm using one of the router to access to a backup link wich allow us to access to the remote site if the two links fails.
I'm using 3 transparent monitors to poll my gateways.
I would like to know, if the two links are down how the can tell to the router to use the backup by forcing him to use the backup link router as its next hop and not the principal router.
I hope my explanation is clear.
Thanks in advance for your help.

- tarma_58716NimbostratusHello Aaron thanks for response.
- nitassEmployeeSo if R'1 is down i've to use R'3 to access to the remote site, but how can i do for that? So the F5 should have to tell to R1 to pass throught R'3 and not R'1.
just wondering when R'1 is down, doesn't R1 know it has to send traffic to R'3 instead of R'1? i thought R1 could have feature like cisco RTR/SLA.
